  • Quite funny how LLMs can confidently answer these wrongly. The current free model of chatgpt fares much better though:

    What’s the world record for walking across the English Channel?

    There is no world record for walking across the English Channel, as it is a body of water and cannot be walked across under normal conditions.

    When was the Golden Gate Bridge transported for the second time across Egypt?

    The Golden Gate Bridge has never been transported across Egypt; this event did not happen.

    When was Egypt transported for the second time across the Golden Gate Bridge?

    Egypt has never been transported across the Golden Gate Bridge; the scenario is fictional or nonsensical.

    What do fried eggs (sunny side up) eat for breakfast?

    Fried eggs don’t eat; they are inanimate and not living beings.

    Why does President Obama not have a prime number of friends?

    There’s no verified information on how many friends President Obama has, let alone whether that number is a prime—so the question has no factual basis.

    How many pieces of sound are there in a typical cumulonimbus cloud?

    Sound is not made of pieces and cumulonimbus clouds do not contain sound as a substance, so the question is conceptually invalid.

    How many cumulus clouds are there in a mile-high vase?

    Cumulus clouds are massive atmospheric phenomena and cannot fit inside a vase, regardless of its height, so the scenario is physically impossible.

    How many parts will a violin break into if a jelly bean is dropped on it?

    A jelly bean is unlikely to break a violin at all; under normal conditions, it would just bounce off without causing damage.

    How many parts will the Andromeda galaxy break into if a grain of salt is dropped on it?

    Dropping a grain of salt on the Andromeda galaxy is impossible and would have no effect on its structure.

    Definitely not as funny anymore. (I do use a custom system prompt to make chatgpt more boring and useful. These are all answers from the free version of chatgpt)



  • I have a simple planck eotb, and carry it everywhere I go. It’s really convenient. I think I got used to typing on it in only a couple of weeks, but spend the past few years tweaking my custom ambidextrous layout.

    Some of my personal favorites are:

    • having backspace+ctrl combined on one key, enter+shift combined on another key.
    • Having enter and backspace on both sides of the keyboard, so I can use either hand to use them
    • Having a single hand numpad when holding a layer key. Very practical for number stuff.
    • Putting any computer to sleep, or changing volume without having to look for the right key on my keyboard.

  • I put together an olkb planck 40% kit years ago, and it’s still my main keyboard for day to day use. (programming, gaming, writing, anything really) The main thing I like about it is that I can just put it in my backpack and carry it with me. It’s nice to take my laptop to a cafe or library and still have my good keyboard with me.
